Most of the icons in Windows are located in Shell32.dll, which is the default dll when customizing icon of a folder.

Thanks Vlasta, but I have looked in here but unfortunately they are not there.
Any other suggestions?

Well, I currently do not have rtm Vista installed. A brute force approach will be to use Batch Icon Extractor on the entire Windows and maybe also Programs folders and then examine the icons. The filenames of the extracted icons contain the name of the dlls and identifiers of the icons - finding the icons should not be difficult.
